I just learned today that some of the artworks,are done by digital wow,fantastic ,there should be a catagories for this wonderful art,it's amazing

Yep. Some artworks may be somewhere between photo/painting/digital art... This image is based on a bad quality old B&W photo and enhansed digitaly.

It works well enough I think.

There are more photo and digital artists than sculptors and their are more painters than sculptors yes but Many painters including myself utilize the art pf photography in the process of making sculpture and painting as well as recording it as a digital image.

So I would hesitate to coral the medium of photography into one category separating it from the way it exists now as Yuri pointed out "photo/painting/digital art". The site is not made to compete with one another as an artist is it?

ROBIN - Perhaps you can explain your idea in a bit more details for our staff and other members, to clarify what you mean.

Currently, we already have a PHOTOGRAPHY GALLERY and it's one of our main 9 art galleries on the site. (From our header menu, go to BROWSE... PHOTOGRAPHY)

We also have over 40 photography related ARTIST GROUPS on our site, where members can add their photos to one or more of these groups and talk with other photographers about the photography group specialty.

Besides these, was there something else that you were wanting with your idea that is different? If so, please explain, thanks!

Many photographic groups to join, please take a look at them all.

To say photography should have its own gallery could be like saying art materials should have its own gallery.Photography as any other visual form of expressing art is all part of the artworld.Art,photography,sculpture,design,graphic art,and music and singing etc.are all heralded under one large umbrella.They are all just different art genres.Perhaps it is my opinion but if I needed anything photographic I would not search for it under ArtWanted.com This does not mean I do not do photography.I do but there are so many photographic platforms where one could show your photography or learn about it. Should you have strong feelings for a photo gallery at ArtWanted ,fine,but please give more detail how you are to go about this. My humble opinion is not everyone that owns a camera,cellphone,i-phone etc,is a photographer.Nowadays even the school children want to teach us how to take photo's.I wish we could go back to black and white photography and darkrooms where real art photography were born.
